I'm confused; aren't Space Marines much taller than average humans? And aren't Tau only 4 feet tall on average? Either it's the size of the XV-25 battlesuit that the Tau's wearing, or an artist error.

Crisis and Broadside Battlesuits, sure. But aren't Stealth Suits still walking on their own two feet? Unless the suit added a lot of height it still wouldn't be tall enough to look down on a Space Marine.

It's an error on the artist. Even sitting down, the Space Marine is taller than the Tau.

Definitely. Still badass for a chibi.

Er, I don't wanna imagine that with a Tau. Eldar are okay. But Tau? I'd rather waste those space commies and loot their tech.

Agree with that. Tau are hypocrits bastards. They're saying they kill for Greater Good, but they kill peoples and slaughter innocent civilians like any other civilisation (except orks, they don't slaughter, they enslave. And Black Space Elves, they don't slaughter, they torture).
They always attempt to reach a diplomatic agreement first, but most of the other races won't have any it and it ends in war. Even then the Tau usually give their enemies a good few chances to surrender to the greater good, but again most of the other races won't listen.
I think the XV25s do add a bit of hight (the armour goes quite a bit other the Tau's head) and the Space marine is sitting down so I don't think this is much off.
